Vision

To make Geography a dynamic discipline through utilizing research techniques of both Physical/Earth Sciences and Social sciences.

Mission

Department of Geography is focusing on its two distinct domains: Human Geography and Physical Geography. All disciplines including Geography made progress through latest innovation through the advancement in technology. Geographic Information System, Remote Sensing, Digital Cartography and Spatial analysis are the latest developments which are credited to the discipline of Geography. Moreover, our focus is also on the social issues of Pakistani society with their spatial dimensions and these are missing in other social sciences. Sustainable development, urban transition, Globalization, Rapid population Growth, Water Contamination, Solid waste Management , Land use/Land use cover change ,natural disaster and hazards, Women empowerment, Changing family structure and changing Pakistani society is the focal areas which are being investigated at our Department.
